well, yeah, but you could post that in every single media related thread on this forum innit
i'm sure everyone knows how/where to get stuff if they want.. despite this, they would probably quite happily pay a fiver to a) watch it on the big screen with some mates and b) support the producers..
don't get me wrong - this isn't some anti-piracy diatribe (you'll notice the second post in this thread is from me, where i clearly state i was already downloading it) - i just think there's no point saying "bittorrent is cheaper" when this is true of every piece of music/film/software/data in existence!
also, bittorrent is a protocol (like http, ftp, nntp, etc.), and thus an abstract concept rather than something tangible.. you can't really compare it to something you can see/hear/feel
